Barn Hunt Fun Clinic

Instructional, fun Barn Hunt Clinic for novice and advanced. Price $20 for two runs.

What is Barn Hunt? The purpose of Barn Hunt is to demonstrate a dog's vermin hunting ability in finding and marking rats in a "barn-like" setting. Hay bales are used to introduce climbing and tunneling obstacles in the dog's path as they search out the rats. Rats are not harmed or stressed!

Any dog who can fit through an 18" wide by approximately 20-22" tall tunnel constructed of hay bales can enjoy this dog sport. The sport tests speed, agility, hunt drive, scenting ability, surefootedness, control and responsiveness to the handler's directions.

While Barn Hunt has roots and origins as a way to test working drives in dogs bred to hunt vermin, Barn Hunt is for any dog and handler who wish to play. This includes large dogs, pet dogs, altered dogs and dogs of breeds or mixes of breeds with or without a vermin-hunting history.
Time: 10AM-1PM
Dates: 9/10 Sunday; 9/23; 10/21 and 10/28 (usual Saturdays)

  This is my third time using Casio for boarding. The people here are super friendly and welcoming. My dog has come home in perfect condition every time she has stayed here and I can't say that about every kennel she has stayed at. I would definately recommend Casio for your furry family member.

  Our pup had a great stay at Cassio Kennels!  He will definitely be back; and in fact we have already made a reservation for him during our summer vacation. Thank you to all the staff for taking such great care of Sam!  🐶

  We love taking our girls to Cassio.  We have been going there for years.  We currently have a Morkie and  Llasa-poo and both love it.  It is a joy to see them running in when we drop them off.

  Sophie always looks forward  to her vacations at Cassio and smells and looks wonderful when we pick her up! She is old and they take very good care of her, we don’t worry when she is there!

  Our new puppy was enrolled in the puppy and the obedience classes, and we both learned so much.  She was also boarded at Cassio for the first time, the staff loved her, she was well taken care of.
